IRS Kicks Off 2011 Tax Season

The filing deadline has been extended to April 18th. Taxpayers impacted by recent tax breaks can file starting in mid- to late February. (Source: IRS Newswire issue IR-2011-1)

Taxpayers will have until Monday, April 18 to file their 2010 tax returns and pay any tax due because Emancipation Day, a holiday observed in the District of Columbia, falls this year on Friday, April 15. By law, District of Columbia holidays impact tax deadlines in the same way that federal holidays do; therefore, all taxpayers will have three extra days to file this year. Taxpayers requesting an extension will have until Oct. 17 to file their 2010 tax returns.
